WOW! This is stunning – you’ve got a lucky girlfriend ;-)! I agree with everyone else – this is the best version of the Kyla, and the cotton makes all the difference. Phenomenal photos, too – guess I should check out your website.

apologies for the late reply. I actually can:t remember if the pattern came with shaping in the bust. What I did was cut the fabric using the biggest size this pattern provided. From there I pinned the muslin unto her body and shaped it from there; marking it with chalk and using pins. Hope this helps!

thank you very much for the comments :). I started the blog last June and it has been a huge therapy / relaxer.

As for the detailing, I’ve been obsessed with yo-yos for quite some time and have found it a great way to use up scrap fabric. I think it gives the dress some added flair. The front pocket was my gf’s idea.
